    you do blues

     you raise my temperature a degree or two
    you raise my temperature a degree or two
    shivering with fever, you do

    you shake my mind into a drink or two
    you shake my mind into a drink or two
    staggering and wobbling, you do

    you make me restless
    like lumber jack
    chop me down
    and drag me back
    (you do, you do, you do.....)
    chop me down
    and drag me back

    you worry me with love
    shoot me up with wine
    ease my weary spirit
    into a jacket of time
    (you do, you do, you do...._
    ease my weary spirit
    into a jacket of time

    clack my spine
    crack my soul
    heal my body
    but do it slow
    (you do, you do, you do.....)
    heal my body
    but do it slow

    heya....thank you very much, appreciate that you enjoyed it.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
